Hello!

 

I meshed two surfaces but I find that there is a small gap between the mesh in the contact area between them(the yellow line) . is there a possibility to get rid of this gap? or combine the 2 meshes ?

 

Sincerely,

    Hi Oggy,

     

    If the mesh is very close, you can equivalence the nodes. 

     

    Goto Tool Page>> Edges panels>> select eleemnts/components>> click Equivalence.

    Is there a way to create a mesh to fill the gap if the gap is very significant? I mean, if the geometry is straight, i can create 2D mesh using 'ruled' option, but what if I have to fill a gap that is not with a regular geometry (and I am not speaking about holes, I know that there is a macro for that).

    Tnx
